Skull base chondrosarcoma presenting with hemorrhage.
A 34-year-old white man with a six month history of a feeling of déjà vu presented with an acute onset of headache and blurred vision associated with nausea and vomiting. Neurological examination was significant for a right third cranial nerve palsy. Computerized tomography (CT) demonstrated a 2.0 cm rim calcified right paracavernous mass with intratumoral hemorrhage and an adjacent 2.6 cm by 2...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted MRI: distinction of skull base chordoma from chondrosarcoma.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Chordoma and chondrosarcoma of the skull base are rare tumors with overlapping presentations and anatomic imaging features but different prognoses. We hypothesized that these tumors might be distinguished by using diffusion-weighted MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 19 patients with pathologically confirmed chordoma or chondrosarcoma who unde...

متن کاملSkull Base Chondrosarcoma: Is there a Role of Endoscopic Excision?
Skull base chondrosarcomas are rare and account for approximately 0.15% of all intracranial tumors. Management of these tumors is challenging because of their potential to recur, and their proximity to vital structures such as major vessels and cranial nerves. We describe five patients with chondrosarcoma of the skull base who were managed at our institute between January 2002 and December
متن کاملSurgical Resectability of Skull Base Meningiomas
With recent advances in surgical technology such as preoperative imaging, neuro-monitoring, and surgical instruments, the surgical resectability of intracranial meningiomas has increased over the last two decades. This study reviewed clinical articles regarding the surgical treatment of meningiomas to clarify the role of surgical excision, with a focus on skull base meningiomas. We sub-classifi...
